Extrait de Parfum

Overview

APOM Pour Femme Elixir turns the original floral perfume into a concentrated oil applied with a small roll-on, giving it a more intimate, hands-on ritual.

It belonged to Les Elixirs, a trio announced in 2011 that also included interpretations of Aqua Universalis and Lumière Noire Pour Femme. Kurkdjian wanted to bring perfume extract into an everyday, portable format. APOM was offered as four small 5 ml roll-ons.

The Elixir develops the original’s warm floral character in a sweeter, richer direction. Its oil texture and application are central to the experience: this is not the regular APOM Eau de Parfum spray in a smaller bottle.

For someone who already enjoys the original

The Elixir is most appealing if you already like APOM Pour Femme and want its creamy side turned up a little. The extra sweetness gives it a fuller feel, and the small roll-on is useful if you prefer applying fragrance directly rather than spraying.

That richness will not suit everyone. If the original already feels too powdery or floral, this is unlikely to solve that. With so few ratings for this particular version, a high average is only a small part of the picture. Check that any listing is actually for the Elixir roll-on.
